For the second consecutive year, AVO will be releasing a cigar for the Tobacconists’ Association of America. This year’s release will be known as the AVO 2nd Movement, a follow-up to last year’s AVO Movement.

The AVO 2nd Movement is a 6 1/4 x 47 round churchill limited to 1,500 boxes of 20, priced at $220 per box or $11 per cigar.

While the cigar will feature an Ecuadorian wrapper over Dominican fillers—the same basic descriptions as last year’s release—Scott Kolesaire, brand manager for AVO, told halfwheel it is a different blend, one described as “full-bodied.”

According to Kolesaire, the cigars are expected to ship in July.
